15. Editing a Masterpiece

Robert Wise and assistant editor Mark Robson edited the film largely without Welles’ supervision. Of course, the two men — who would both go on to become established directors in their own right — were given film that left little to the imagination. Welles and Toland had purposely shot the film to be easily edited, and since Welles wasn’t in the habit of doing a lot of takes, little could be done but patch the film together.
